QSS not only cancels Yasuo's ult suspension...

Project omen·May 14, 2016·122 votes·8,988 views

...but prevents him from ulting in the first place. The video shows how this is possible. Check it out! I don't know if this is intended or not, which is why I posted it here. It appears that, code-wise, if you use qss right after you get knocked up, you will not be considered "airborne". Game-wise, the cc will still be applied, but Yasuo won't be able to ult you. Thanks to APAN OLI for helping me test this! EDIT: I will upload a new video regarding QSS and knocking abilities in general here on the boards shortly.

Why the hell is this getting downvoted? Is there just a half dozen assholes running around on the forums downvoting everything in sight?

geez..

dangopeeMay 14, 201638 votes

I swear there's just some dudes that just go down the front page downvoting every post without even reading the title.

MelledoneusMay 15, 20161 votes

I've met one. For a considerable asshole, he was quite nice.

MhihnjMay 15, 20161 votes

Does his name end with 'Y'?

MelledoneusMay 15, 20161 votes

Keep forgetting what his name was. I remember it was a cartoon/anime character.

I guess I'd be mad too if I saw someone reveal a big counter for my main :D The irony is that I main Yasuo.

It doesn't fit within the list of community approved Gameplay topics that must be reposted ad infinitum.

BRING BACK YOLO Q OR I'M QUITTING THE GAME!!!!!!

TheOvermindMay 14, 20162 votes

I bet it's just 2-3 no lifers that hop on 4 different accounts and down vote everything in sight . It's ridiculous every post I create always gets to -1 , -2 before it actually received any up votes if any

IGotScuttleCrabsMay 15, 20164 votes

Yea you post, look like a minute later and you have -2 and 1 view. And that's all it takes for your post to disappear.

Welcome to the cancer that is the up/down vote system. Thanks, Reddit, for popularizing a terrible forum system.

GaleWinUnleashedMay 14, 20162 votes

Half dozen? Pretty sure there's rather more than that.

ModWulf HelhammerMay 14, 201612 votes

That's because his ult counts as a suppression, as well as you being able to cleanse knockups (you just can't immediately move). For any knockup, if you cleanse it and then use a mobility ability, you can move again.

Suspension*. Suppression is another type of CC.

RespectPlusMay 14, 20162 votes

Suspension is basically a suppression in the air

Auz the RipperMay 14, 20162 votes

Suspension is more an ordinary stun in the air. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles supression does like ignoring tenacity and disabling all summoner spells

XeroKimoMay 15, 20163 votes

That is completely wrong, suspension is a knockup + stun combo that is treated as a stun allowing people to cleanse it or QSS it.

There is pretty much only 2 of these, Nami's bubble, and Yasuo's ult, Vel'koz e says it suspends people, but I never really noticed it so I don't think it does, but if it does than that's 3

Suppression is a type of cc that cc's both the target and the user, only 3 champs have supression WW ult, Urgot ult and Malz ult

ToastersaotMay 15, 20161 votes

Don't forgot Skarner

The GovernerMay 15, 20161 votes

The biggest difference between Suspension and Suppression is that Tenacity (crowd control reduction) does not affect Suppression, whilst it does affect Suspension because it's counted as a type of stun.

Other than that, you can use summoner spell Cleanse and Mikael's Crucible to cleanse Suspension but you can't do the same with Suppression.

Wow shit, i didnt know that. Thanks bruv

A Basic IslandMay 15, 20167 votes

kinda funny that QSS has ALWAYS worked this way and people are just now noticing because of a nerf

AaravosMay 14, 20166 votes

This is working as intedent. Qss free you form every type of cc including knockups, so if you use qss you are no longer airborne and Yasuo can't ult you. It is much more fustrating when they get out from your ult surpress meanwhile you stuck in the animation. Qss is a strong counter against Yasuo just players for some reason rarely use it. Oh and only Zed is allowed to be uncounterable so don't be surprised from this interaction.

Crowe StalkerMay 14, 20161 votes

Fiora and Trundle are also immune to QSSing their ults now I thought, something about making it so you could counterplay CC but not damage?

GawnMowerMay 15, 20162 votes

You right, their ults should now be un-qss'able. only the CC abilties should be effected

Spaceman5pffMay 14, 20162 votes

I didn't know this was possible until now! This (a custom game) is actually pretty much the only way to find out that you can qss airborne status, as ONLY yasuo interacts with that effect. In a PVP scenario only the yasuo would notice the interaction, since the person qssing couldnt possible know if yasuo wanted to ult or not unless yasuo told them.

TLDR: "for some reason" many people assume you cant prevent yas ult with qss bc qss doesn't end a knockup. Little other than this video points to this interaction. It is not very obvious

yay nibbersMay 15, 20161 votes

This. If you have flash or some other mode of movement other than right clicking you can even get out of knockups after you QSS. Handy against Lee Sin if you have quick reflexes.

Still wondering why an item is stronger than a summoner

Zed ?

as far as im aware this is intended

Goes to show how useless cleanse is.

VesarixxMay 15, 20162 votes

Also happens with Gangplank W and Alistar R

Naag OneMay 16, 20162 votes

buff Yasuo :D

if not at least fix some of them bugs like not being able to attack some times after using Ult or Q

Project omenMay 16, 20161 votes

Yasuo not attacking for a little bit after ulting is intended. You can see it in his strategy page in lol wiki.

Naag OneMay 18, 20161 votes

why is it like that? what purpose does such a handicap serve? would it make him mega OP if this does not exist? if there is some official explanation for this plz link/post here. I always thought this was some bug as it makes no sense to me for it being intended and not a bug

DogIsGodMay 14, 20161 votes

Talked about this on Reddit. Got downvoted into oblivion. Way to go, anti-yasuo tards.

Autrah FangMay 15, 20161 votes

that awkward moment when an item and a summoner spell are supposed to do the same thing as each other, but the item does the job better and cleanses more things...

Refer A Friend 1May 15, 20161 votes

Well, I know what item i'm buying on every champion with a Yasuo running around.

MilfHuntUnitXJ9May 15, 20161 votes

Holy shit thanks for this info

Hard PenetratorMay 15, 20161 votes

So it basically cancel your "status" despite not cancelling effect. Interesting but Its really hard to say if it's broken or skillfull enough. It would feel balanced in teams with more than 1 knockup and pretty broken in no knockups team aside of yasuo.

Project omenMay 15, 20161 votes

I will upload a new video representation of the first sentence of your comment shortly. Check it out!

LuxannaVeritasMay 15, 20161 votes

Well, guess I'm not banning Yasuo anymore in my games. ;D

I'm guessing that Cleanse stops the debuffs when they end, but Quicksilver stops the debuffs immediately? If anyone knows the correct answer to why it works I would love to hear it.

How did you guys decide to try this out? Like, how did the video come about?

Project omenMay 15, 20163 votes

I noticed it in ranked games. It rarely happened. I knocked up an adc, the adc immediately uses qss (probably panicked) and I couldn't ult him despite spamming R. So I decided to test it in a custom game to make sure. From the looks of it, qss cancels the whole effect, but cleanse doesn't clear the "airborne" status, which Yasuo interacts with.

LuxannaVeritasMay 15, 20161 votes

Ah, I see! Thank you!

AwesomeChadMay 15, 20161 votes

Did you guys try casting the ulti after the QSS active goes away? Did it still have the same results?

DiazexMay 16, 20161 votes

I just ult as Janna, and it knocks Yasuo away from whoever he is in the middle of ulting. They're still suspended, but it does no damage ._. Bug or not, it's been happening for a good year and a half at least xD
